An air conditioner includes a housing including an inlet and an outlet, and a blade rotatably provided to open and close the outlet. A blade drive device is connected to one end of the blade in a longitudinal direction of the blade to rotate the blade. A blade support unit is configured to rotatably support the other end of the blade in the longitudinal direction of the blade. The blade support unit includes a coil spring configured to apply torque to the blade and a blade holder is coupled to the other end of the blade. A first coupler is coupled to the coil spring, and is configured to penetrate the coil of the coil spring. A case is configured to accommodate the first coupler of the blade holder and is mounted to the housing. The air conditioner is capable of reducing deformation and noise in a blade.

Air conditioner

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a memory storing complex command information including a plurality of functions and the order information of the plurality of functions, a communication interface, and a processor configured to control the communication interface to perform Bluetooth communication with a remote control apparatus, and based on a control signal being received from the remote control apparatus, acquire a plurality of function informations included in the control signal, and based on identifying that the plurality of function informations correspond to the plurality of functions included in the complex command information, perform control operations corresponding to the plurality of function informations continuously based on the order information included in the complex command information.

Electronic apparatus and controlling method thereof

The present disclosure relates to a sensor network and Internet of Things (IoT) as applied to intelligent services based technologies such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. An apparatus and method for controlling an electronic device through a mesh network of such electronic devices are provided. In a method for controlling an electronic device, a terminal transmits to the electronic device, a terminal identifier for authenticating the terminal and information for authenticating a user of the terminal. If authentication of the terminal is successfully completed, the terminal transmits control information containing at least one service identifier classified according to service types to the electronic device. The control information is transmitted to another electronic device, based on the service identifier, through a network in which the electronic device is connected to another electronic device.

Apparatus and method for controlling display in electronic device having processors

A method and an apparatus for supporting facility control of a terminal are provided. The method includes a sensor device receiving facility-related information from a remote control device of a facility to which the sensor device is attached, driving at least one sensor in accordance with the facility-related information, determining a kind of the facility based on a result of detecting through the at least one driven sensor, and transmitting a registration request for the facility of which the kind has been determined to a gateway. The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as a smart home, a smart building, a smart city, a smart car, a connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.

Method and apparatus for supporting facility control of terminal

Disclosed is a technology for a sensor network, machine to machine (M2M) communication, machine type communication (MTC), and the Internet of things (IoT). The disclosure can be utilized in an intelligent service (smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail business, security and safety-related services, and the like) based on the technology. A server control method according to the present invention comprises the steps of: receiving, from at least one network hub, communication state information on at least one electronic device connected to the at least one network hub; determining, on the basis of the received communication state information, another network hub for a connection of a first electronic device connected to the network hub on which an abnormal operation of a certain network hub is sensed, if the abnormal operation is sensed; and transmitting a request for a connection of the first electronic device to the determined other network hub.

Network hub management method and device in wireless communication system

A lighting control method and an electronic device using the same are provided. The method includes receiving pattern information for controlling lighting, generating lighting control information including brightness level information corresponding to operation time information based on the received pattern information, and transmitting the lighting control information.

Method and apparatus for controlling lighting

A method and an apparatus for validating device-to-device (D2D) communication devices in a server via a mobile terminal are provided. A 1st device-to-device (D2D) communication device includes a communication unit for communicating with a mobile terminal via D2D communication, and a controller. The controller is configured to control the communication unit to transmit digital signature information of the 1st D2D communication device to the mobile terminal, receive, when the digital signature information is successfully authenticated in a server, server public encryption information, from the mobile terminal, and transmit device information of the 1st D2D communication device, which is encrypted using the server public encryption information, to the server, and register the 1st D2D communication device in the server. The method and apparatus reduce user input for registering D2D communication devices in a server, increases user convenience, and decrease authentication time.
